Michigan medical professionals will need to undergo implicit bias training in order to be licensed by the state, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and state leaders announced Thursday.
The state Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs is in charge of licensing medical professionals. Under a new executive directive from Whitmer department will create new rules that make implicit bias training mandatory for people to qualify for licensure, renewal or registration.

I think this is a good idea. Many medical professionals need to get more sleep.

Before I retired from a large Fortune 100 company, I had to suffer through these kind of programs every 3 years on average.

They just issued a correction. It's to make sure that docs are all up to date on the new virus from China which causes bowel issues: implicit bi-ass. Funny, it only affects politicians and causes them to evacuate their bowels with the same sh-one-t air they spew orally.

OK then, suppose a patient wants only a Caucasian doctor to lay hands on him? Is there going to be a program for the patient population? Like it’s the fault of the medical community that there are more black deaths than white.

As we all know - - licensing has nothing at all to do with maintaining professional competence.
It's just another evil leftist strategy for controlling access to revenue. Lefties get a power high - - whenever the manage to force licensing on another profession. If only a conservative legal group would make it an objective to get professional licensing declared unconstitutional.
If only - - - - -

This is another waste of time and money. Another worthless check the box. How many healthcare professionals will sleep walk through whatever worthless training? By far and away most. This is the usual goobernment response. More blacks die of covid thatn whites by proportion. Thus, there is racial discrimination amoung healthcare providers. They assume the doctors, nurses and others are racist and must be trained about their racism. No reserach into why blacks have a higher rate of death. No reserach into treatment standards. Nothing. Just assume all healthcare providers are racist. Guilty by goobernment. Is ther nothing on this earth our goobernment can't make worse? All elected and appoined goobernment decisions makeers god to heaven. How do we know? Cause Satan doesn't want them to screw up Hell.

Instead of trying to indoctrinate doctors, Governor Nurse Rachett might want to find out why altho being only 13% of the overall population, Blacks account for 39% of all arrests for violent crime!

This is exactly the kind of thing that the KKK did to keep blacks in line.

It's as if some states are trying to drive out all productive professionals and create a population made up exclusively of unemployed dolts. We are going to need bigger walls.

"Implicit bias" is FAKE. It truly is not measurable in any scientific psychometric test. Dr. Mahzarin Banaji of Harvard & Anthony Greenwald, social psychologists are the formulated the first "IB" test in 1998. They have made their mark in Pop Psychology by promoting this quackery in their book Blindspot. Marxists and Post-Modernists love the whole idea. In the last 20 years the test has been debunked. There has also been much scandal in the field of social psychology - mostly ignored by the media & those who want to keep us hating each other. People want 'proof' of what they already believe - even if the fakes & data show otherwise.

I too worked for a multinational healthcare equipment company and was subjected ANNUALLY to the Diversity BS, the Sexual Harassment BS and the Racial BS. They even had the nerve to conduct tests afterwards to make sure you stayed awake. A failure meant that you had to sit through the applicable BS again. The 1941 Germans would have been proud.
After all that, I still think that diversity sucks, sexual behavior is nothing more than the mating dance between male and female and I am growing more racist by the day given that the proclaimed victims are the real racists.

So the FACT that blacks have a higher rate of diabetes, heart disease, being overweight, and just about every other underlying illness/disease that makes them more likely to get and die from COVID-19 is somehow the result of implicit racial bias? Know what racial bias is? Racial bias is assuming that white people are racist based health issues and lifestyle factors of people of another race that we have nothing to do with! The greater incidence of COVID-19 deaths among minorities is because they are more likely to have the underlying conditions that make them die. That is not due to racial bias, it is due to genetics and lifestyle/cultural choices. Do not force me to sit and try to make me feel guilty about something that I am not guilty of.

By forcing people to sit through this BS they will be creating implicit bias where none had existed before! This "issue" is a crime in search of victims and we are all being branded criminals based on an imaginary crime that we apparently did not know existed until some enlightened aggrieved race hustler invented it.

So if Whitless whines to DC about the lack of medical personnel in her state, she will conveniently forget that this problem is on her?

This is going to anger a lot of folks who aren't racist, but are going to start thinking about it.

This is blatantly unconstitutional. It is brainwashing. It is an assault on the very conscience of every medical professional. The people of Michigan need to recall her as soon as possible.

How are the bLACK healthcare professionals going to handle implicit bias training, so that they can service patients not of their race? Or is it a White privilege to be able to attend these classes?

Here's all you need to know about Gretchen Whitmer. She is ALL ABOUT race as the SE corner of the mitten put her ( and nearly all democrat governors in power at least since I was born 71 years ago) in . She will not be re-elected and is currently the target of a serious recall . Next month she plans to announce a mandatory requirement that all the citizens of Michigan have to wear snorkels whenever they leave home in case they accidentally fall into a swimming pool or fall out of the boats she tried to outlaw a couple of months ago.

Sounds like a potent tool to drive medical professionals OUT of the state!
On a separate, but related issue.....
How come every time I see a photo (and now if I just read her name) of this idiot 'Governor', into my mind pops the image of Cruella DeVille from the original animated '101 Dalmatians' ?
